ALICE status after TS All fills from 2090 to 2103 could not be used, ALICE was safe all the time Physics runs have been taken in fills 2104, 2105, 2110, 2117 and 2124; however, gaseous detectors (including the TPC) could not always be ramped up 2

Conclusions From fill 2110 observed improvement of vacuum and bkgd, still far from status before TS From fill 2110 observed improvement of vacuum and bkgd, still far from status before TS Conditions are still not “optimal”, V0AND ~ 300 KHZ i.e. 4-5 times larger Conditions are still not “optimal”, V0AND ~ 300 KHZ i.e. 4-5 times larger Target pressure for acceptable bkgd is ~3x10 -9 mbar 21
